[PATCH 1/6] brcmfmac: check p2pdev mac address uniqueness

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The mac address for p2pdev must be different from the primary interface
due to firmware requirement. Add an explicit check for this requirement
if user-space provides a mac address.
